Hampshire’s Pre-Season Calendar Confirmed
Hampshire’s men and women will be going on tour in March with trips to Stellenbosch and Desert Springs, and five warm up matches
Hampshire Cricket can confirm that fast-bowler Reece Topley has been diagnosed with a partial stress fracture of the lumbar spine.
This will require a significant period of rehabilitation and he will miss the next three months - he will aim for a return with Hampshire by the end of the season.
I was completely devastated to hear the news of my stress related back injury – I just want to play for Hampshire and contribute to their cricket. Last week, I was particular concerned that my 2016 season was going to be limited to one single session, on the very first day of the season, when I fractured my hand batting. It is hoped that I may be back bowling in August so hopefully I will have the opportunity to repay Hampshire for the faith they have shown in me.”

The left-armer joined Hants at the end of the 2015 season and he enjoyed an impressive winter with England, finishing the one-day series against South Africa as the leading wicket-taker.
